We’re dreaming a jam of joyful connection and embodied expression—where families, movers, and magic-makers of all kinds can gather for dance, ritual, pageantry, and moments of meaning. We hope to co-create something alive, inclusive, and full of heart.
Children’s Programming
The children’s program is a very special part of the summer jam at Earthdance. This jam brings in many families and about thirty or more kids of all ages. Every morning, for 4 hours, there will be 6 staff and one coordinator who will be dedicated to creating a fun experience for your children.
They will be offered opportunities to move around and play in the field, make art and crafts, have story time, gardening, forest walks and more. We couldn’t have a summer jam without S’mores around the bonfire, pizza making and our now-famous giant slip’n slide. This year we’re hoping to add more soccer games, foam swords fights, ninja training parcours, baking(-and eating!) cakes and crepes, and dancing.
We’re also planning more afternoon offerings as well as parents-focused sharing circles and other workshops. We are so excited to welcome you and your kids to our program. Whether it’ll be your first time or not, we are looking forward to being in community with you.
JOIN The Children’s Programming Team!
As we’re planning the kids’ program, we’re also creating our 2025 team. You would like to be part of it? The staff works from 9am until 1pm for 5 mornings of the jam (you get one morning off!) in exchange for a free jam.
Please tell us about you and how you could contribute in this application form (
